    I really like this stylus as it feels like I'm writing with a pen and it doesn't have any noticeable lag. You can create shortcuts on it and it works really well for taking notes. I purchased this to use on my laptop to take notes during class and I love it. I would give this 5 stars but due it requires batteries and I would have preferred it be rechargeable especially for the price.

    This was my first time using the pen. I didn't have any issues with it. It's very easy to use. I recommend getting it especially if you have a touch screen.

    I purchased this active stylus the same time i purchased my inspiron 12 laptop to use for school. I was able to write, yes write, my notes from class with the bamboo software. The stylus connected effortlessy to my laptop. the only thing i dis-like about it is the fact that it takes a AAAA (<-- 4A) battery which is a special order item in most locations.

    I love the stylus. It's easy to set up. I use it to make notes to myself and for games. I only gave it 4 stars because the battery wears out to quick. I used it for about 2 1/2 months then it stopped working. It took me a while to realize that it was the battery and then I had a hard time finding a AAAA battery. Other than that it's very convenient for what I use it for.

    Bought this on impulse to use with my windows ink compatible 2 in 1. Don't use it much. Looks like there's more lag than the new iPad Pro (judging by the commercials - I've not actually used one). Looking forward to using it more to annotate saved web pages and draw programs (I like Corel Draw). Without a real "need" probably should have passed by the display and saved the money.

    It works as advertised with an Asus 2-in-1 that was purchased at the same time. Unfortunately, we haven't had much reason to use it day-to-day.

    Perfect for my tablet needs - essentially note taking. Only negative is finding replacement batteries... AAAA are uncommon except at Best Buy.

    It works very well for my hp spectre laptop, no hiccups and seamless writing on the screen. I really like the touchscreen feature with the laptops now. I just wish the laptops came with the pen since it is a basic feature of the laptop to have them and it shows them on the pictures but then the pen is really sold separate, so that is a little deceiving.

    I needed a stylus for a laptop I just bought. This was the only compatible product available in the store. It took several tries to install and configure the pen to be recognized by the laptop. I followed the directions and couldn't get it to work. If finally worked through trial and error. It is not as smooth as the stylus that goes with the Microsoft Surface (which is not compatible with the Lenovo 2-in-1 I bought) but manageable. I changed the tip to one of the other ones that came with the stylus and it worked better.

    I bought this to use with my touchscreen laptop to handwrite notes and use for drawing. It is easy to set up and use. The only downside is that the batteries get drained. So if you are not going to be using the pen for some time take out the batteries. There is no power off button so I assume the Bluetooth stays on.

    always feel i might lose it. Would have been better if the laptops had a space where you could insert it or stick it to magnetically.

    I have only briefly used a stylus on a PC. I'm sure it can do more than what I have done so far with it. Setup was a little odd, did not take right away, I had to change the mode the stylus was in. Then it worked with my laptop. As with a lot of things now, I'm sure there are more information on-line that can explain how to get more out of it. I will recommend this, but check out what other options are available.
